Coca-cola bottles, garbage and dirty linen lay scattered across the floor, while rotten bananas were left on a table, the newspaper said.

The bathroom was a shambles and the cleaning company spent a full day tidying the apartment.

In December, when Seguin returned to America, the staff were met with a similar stiff challenge.

Blick said the hockey player was "not versed in appliances" and as a result tried to wash his clothes in the dryer.

"He also did not know how to operate the dishwasher . . . when he ran out of clean plates, glasses and cutlery, he bought plastic tableware."

Marc Lüpold, the managing director of the cleaning company, was diplomatic about the revelations.

"You could tell it was the first time a young, single man had an apartment," Lüpold told Blick.

Apparently this is news because no 20-year-old male who's living on his own for the first time has ever had a dirty apartment. Ever. Never happens. We're all super clean neat freaks from the moment we live the nest and go out into the world on our own.

We feel bad that Seguin tipped these guys $200 and then they went and talked about how dirty he is. Jerks.

We did love this line though:
